Over the years the NFL Pro Bowl has become less about football and more about showcasing the incredible talent of the NFL players that we have become massive fans of.

The culmination of the Pro Bowl weekend in Orlando, Florida is a flag football game featuring the AFC versus the NFC coached by Eli and Peyton Manning. 

This "game" is a 7-on-7 competition with quarterbacks and the skill positions against the linebackers and secondary of the defense. Taking the big lineman out of the game and making it a competition of the "skill" positions.

In Sunday's game, the play became a bit of a track meet. Up and down the field with big chunk plays and a bunch of scoring but midway through the second quarter, the NFC found themselves deep in the red zone. 

On first down, Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith tried to test Denzel Ward in the endzone and The Warden made him pay.

Geno lofted a ball to the back left corner and number 21 tracked it and with one hand snagged the pass and then got two feet in to complete the catch. 

As Browns fans grew accustomed to throughout the year, Ward put an exclamation point on the play by hitting his signature guitar celebration that became a fan favorite.

In a game that has little to no defense at all, Denzel Ward not only made a play to stop the NFC from scoring, but he may have made the play of the entire game.

Cleveland had plenty of representation throughout at this year's Pro Bowl. Ward certainly stole the show from his teammates though with the highlight catch.
